First there were all the threads with mirrorless advocates trashing DSLRs and OVFs, wishing for their demise or pronouncing them dead. Now this sort of name-calling.

Any wonder that when someone starts yet another thread to praise mirrorless cameras to the high heavens, while bashing DSLRs and those that prefer to use them, that some DSLR users just might dare to voice a contrary opinion?

What is often quite telling is that some of these mirrorless 'dslr is dead' posters make it clear that they do not understand why anyone needs or wants a dslr, because after all, mirrorless and EVF's are good enough for them so why should anyone else need something different?

They don't understand. They outright say so and then assume based on that lack of understanding, their 'rightness' should be accepted.

I say if they like mirrorless or even lens-less that's fine with me, but they should take their damn pamphlets and quit knocking on my door with 'em.

Absolutely agree. Mirrorless advocates treat their wisdom as pure religion. Religion from the middle ages no less and as mirrorless cameras continue their downward spiral, losing more market share, and tens of millions of dollars every quarter, they face a reality shift that any fraudulently based church faces.
